The Ace libraries actually mostly use LibSharedMedia for their fonts (at least Ace3), and you can register any .ttf you want to use using LibSharedMedia, and any addon that uses LSM will have access to that font.
So if you have a particular TTF you love, you can write a four line addon that will register that font with LSM and open it up to all other LSM mods.
EventAlert is top notch for proc tracking. For tracking debuffs on my enemies Forte does alright and my X-Perl frames give me decent information on my target.

if I recall correctly - I believe I use pitbull 4 from 3, but I may be mistaken - the setup just works differently. rather than saying 'i want the party frames to look like this', you make a preset of sorts, set it how you want, and then apply that preset to party frames, or pet frames etc.
so it's nice in a way but it's just different from what you're used to.
take this with a grain of salt, I know there was a UF addon that changed like this because it took me a while to even understand how it worked, but I'm not positive it's pitbull just pretty sure.
It allowed you to create what were basically images that you could use to frame chatboxes/frame off parts of the screen etc. On my old ui I used it to make a gradient black box for behind my chatbox and thin silver lines that were above and below my action bars.
Also while this thread is up, there was another addon that is similar to titan panel in that is shows bagspace/gold/durability etc. but each category could be moved/altered individually and the text was yellow and white.
Yeah, that's likely a Broker thing. Broker is the same as Titan/Fubar essentially, only instead of specific plug-ins for a specific mod (e.g., AtlasLootFu for Fubar), you have a smattering of Broker plugins that can work with any Broker display mod. Some of said display mods are bars, some are a series of blocks, and some are just text fields. It's a really nice system, as you're not quite as locked into finding a specific plugin for the addon that you're using.
Not sure if anyone uses Inline Auras here, but currently it doesn't work in Beta. Not only that, but it's apparently horrendously broken in Beta... it dropped my FPS from about 60 to 13 including huge freezes whenever anything combat or loot wise would happen. Yay!
Couple of prat/chat questions. Is there a way to remove the buttons to the left of the chat frame (scroll, friends etc.) and what is the module that enables the copy icon in the top left so I can get rid of it too.
Also, is there a mod that allows you to move the buff icons further right when the map is moved? I've already reskinned them, but the gap is annoying me.
edit: the titan/fubar alike I was looking for was SLDataText.

Prat can do that. Make sure you enable the Buttons module (I think that's it).
I use Satrina's Buff Frames. Some others like Buffalo (I think) also work.
Edit: in case anyone used it back in the day, DHUD has been picked up and is being maintained.
So I'm having an issue where the text size of the edit box is not scaling with the text size of the chat window. This occurs with Prat, Chatter, bChat, and any other chat addon I bothered to test. Any suggestions? If there's a lua command for it, I can toss it in my "ZZZMiscStuff" addon.
Are there any mods that can swap all your action bars between two states without having to hold down a modifier, just a button toggle or typed command?
Can shift scroll with bartender and it keeps my keybinds but only changes the first bar.

You can enable Quick Paging for every bar in Dominos. That should make shift+scroll work on them. I don't know if you can also just assign a keybind to toggle between states.
Any new inventory mods about? I've tried most of the old ones but am still struggling to find anything amongst all the crap I seem to carry round with me and have to keep resorting to the search feature. Using Combuctor at the moment which is decent but hope springs eternal.
What unitframe addons are being supported right now?
I started with AG unit frames, but that stopped being supported early wrath (or late TBC, can't remember which).
I've been using Xperl, but the main coder isn't around anymore and the people who picked it up to try to bugfix it probably won't have it compatible with 4.0.1 when it drops. I'm assuming it's dead at that point.
I saw Pitbull was mentioned in the OP, and it looks like Pitbull4 is in the works when I went to Wowace, how is it?

I like Pitbull4. It has a lot of features, so configuration is a huge undertaking for the first time. Some dislike the new config style in 4. If you've never used 3 that shouldn't be a problem, though.

ArkInventory has a bit of a setup period to it, but its pretty nice for organization.

It definitely has a setup period, but once it's set you're fine. I *love* ArkInventory. I can't go back to non-automatically organized bags. I've been meaning to toss it onto Beta, as I've heard it mostly works. I hope the creator of it is able to get it fully working in 4.0. I especially like the more recently added custom sort order methods, amazingly useful for noticing low level epic BoPs that end up in your alternate equipment sets after a dungeon run.

Shadowed UF is another one you may want to check out. Similar skin to AG/Pitbull but with less setup time.
I use Bagnon for bags and I used ArkInventory back in the day. If it auto-organizes, I may have to check it out again.

Actually I did look at that one, but the last release version (at least, on curse), was June and the writer had disabled comments. I didn't exactly feel confident with that.

Yeah, Shadowed stopped playing so this is probably the last version of ShadowedUF which sucks because it's basically Pitbull done right

that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
But fubar looks like it can do the same.
can't recall what the hell it was called, though
ed: it was Fortress
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
It really had no structure to it, each asset was scalable or changeable and they weren't locked into each other or some other bar.
Think I saw it on some raid video and had to ask the dude what is was.
But there's so many, it'd be hard to guess which one, even with the details you gave.
Also, is there a mod that allows you to move the buff icons further right when the map is moved? I've already reskinned them, but the gap is annoying me.

To preserve the existing font but change the size:
local path, size, extra = editbox:GetFont();
editbox:SetFont(path, YOUR_NEW_SIZE, extra);
is there are a reason print() and /dump don't work?

I mostly just wanted to see what all you had.

I'll have to find a new UF addon for Cataclysm
I remember seeing Shadowed on another forum/IRC but it's been forever.
And, yeah, I agree. I've always loved the aesthetic of PitBull but the setup just hurt my brain.
